Buddhism, the Internet and Digital Media: The Pixel in the Lotus
explores Buddhist practice and teachings in an increasingly
networked and digital era. Contributors consider the ways Buddhism
plays a role and is present in digital media through a variety of
methods including concrete case studies, ethnographic research, and
content analysis, as well as interviews with practitioners and
cyber-communities. In addition to considering Buddhism in the
context of technologies such as virtual worlds, social media, and
mobile devices, authors ask how the Internet affects identity,
authority and community, and what effect this might have on the
development, proliferation, and perception of Buddhism in an online
environment. Together, these essays make the case that studying
contemporary online Buddhist practice can provide valuable insights
into the shifting role religion plays in our constantly changing,
mediated, hurried, and uncertain culture.
